FFXIV ARR saved the franchise, and took SE out of dept. It is currently SE biggest money maker.

How the MMORPG's do financially is not going to determine the course of the mainline games, as they are generally intended for a different audience. Final Fantasy Record Keeper is probably bringing in a lot more revenue, as it's been in the top 10 of both Android and iOS highest grossing apps in Japan for years, but that doesn't mean it saved the mainline FF franchise. It comes down to how confident fans of the mainline series are in purchasing the next one. We'll see what kind of effect XV had when XVI comes out.

FFXIV is a mainline game. It is a numbered title for fans, and for new comers to mmos.
